[macOS Monterey] Customise (or remember) folders/ expansion in left hand pane

[danielfrimley (Leica APS-C CL, Nikon D850 | MacBook Air (M1))]

Is it possible to either customise the folder list that appears in the left hand pane in PhotoLibrary or have it “remember” the expanded/ collapsed options from the last session. On open it goes a bit nuts and automatically expands things like the home folder on the device, or the home folder in favourites etc. - I’d prefer to focus on my “Photos” folder(s) and not have the noise of unnecessary folders coming up front and centre

I’ve just retested to confirm, in PhotoLab v5.4.0, the folder list comes back at its latest status for expanded/collapsed folder after clore / open.

@Pathal

folder list comes back at its latest status for expanded/collapsed folder after close / open

DEVICES, SHARED, FAVORITES and PROJECTS always open expanded.
Below these top categories, open/close status is remembered.

I’d prefer DPL to also remember the status of the top categories.

PLUS the Users/username folder in both DEVICES and FAVOURITES, that is always expanded (certainly on my Mac) - that’s where the majority of the noise is. Thanks both, I think I’ll make a feature request. Appreciate your input.

I would prefer a true Favorites option. Not just a reflection of the Finder sidebar.
